Harry Potter’s Natural Villain
Chapter 191: Guests From Afar (Part 2)
"Dear Mrs. Maxim," he said, "Welcome to Hogwarts."
"Dumbledore," Mrs. Maxim said in a low voice, "I hope you are well."
"Very good, thank you." Dumbledore said.
"My student," Mrs. Maxim said, waving a huge hand carelessly behind her.
At this time, about twelve or three male and female students had gotten off the carriage, and they were standing behind Mrs. Maxim.Judging from their appearance, they are all about eighteen or nineteen years old, and all of them are shaking slightly.This is not surprising, because the robes on their bodies seem to be made of delicate silk, and no one wears a cloak.A few students wrapped their heads with scarves or turban certificates, and occasionally a few showed their faces with vigilant expressions.
Malfoy suddenly felt that he was firmly locked in by a gaze, and his intuition was now quite sensitive, allowing him to perceive some "hostile" actions.
Then Malfoy looked in that direction, and saw a tall girl staring in the direction he was.
Even though her face was hidden under the turban, Malfoy had guessed who she was.
"Big brother!" Gabriel behind Furong was holding one hand tightly with her sister at this time, and the other hand was briskly taking off the scarf around her neck and desperately facing Malfoy. He waved his little hand in the direction, his bright eyes were filled with excitement, and he shouted silently.
Then it seemed that Furong gave her a fierce look, and Gabriel lowered her head aggrievedly.
"Don't show your favor to him anymore! Don't talk to him." Fleur squeezed Gabriel's white and tender face and said word by word.
"Then you don't allow it." Gabrielle murmured softly.
"I am a elder sister, you are a younger sister, you want to listen to me, you know?" Furong showed her sister's prestige, but Gabriel didn't seem to eat this set.
"Obviously, I am staring at his photos printed in the newspaper from time to time at home, so I am embarrassed to say me." Gabriel made a strange face at Furong at this time and stuck her tongue out at her.
"I was to remember the appearance of the "enemy"." Furong said with a little confidence, no one could see her expression under her headscarf, but she could guess it.
"Is Karkaroff here?" Mrs. Maxim asked, but it made Sister Furong stop the small "dispute." Similarly, Boothbatten is actually a strictly managed school. There was considerable respect for Mrs. Maxim, so the two of them immediately stopped.
"He will come anytime," said Dumbledore. "Are you willing to wait here to greet him, or would you like to go in and get warm?"
"It's better to warm up," Mrs. Maxim said, "but those horses—"
"Our guardian of magical creatures will be happy to take care of them." Dumbledore said with a smile.
Professor Grapland immediately stepped forward and said: "We have prepared the finest pure malt whisky." The female teacher seemed comfortable with all this.
"Come on," Madam Maxim said to her students with dignity.So the Hogwarts crowd stepped out of a passage and let her and her students walk up the stone steps into the auditorium.
The tall figure paused in front of Malfoy for a while, the bright eyes under the turban gave him a deep look, and then walked in without looking back.
In contrast, the Demstrang delegation’s appearance was even more bizarre. The students at Hogwarts were trembling with cold, and there was a moment of silence, only to hear Mrs. Maxim’s giant horse spray. The sound of sniffing and stomping.at this time--
A very loud and weird sound floated towards them from the darkness: a suppressed rumbling and sucking sound, like a huge vacuum cleaner moving along the riverbed...
"In the lake!" Lee Jordan shouted.
Standing on the slope of the lawn overlooking the field, they could clearly see the calm and dark water surface-but the surface suddenly became no longer calm.There was a commotion under the water in the middle of the lake, huge splashes of water turned up on the water, and the waves rushed against the damp lakeshore—then, in the middle of the lake, a large whirlpool appeared, as if a huge plug suddenly came from the bottom of the lake Was pulled out...
A black long rod-like thing slowly rises from the whirlpool... sails.
Slowly, in a magnificent manner, the big ship rose out of the water, shining in the moonlight.It looked weird, like a skeleton, as if it were the remains of a sunken ship that had just been salvaged. The porthole was shining with dim, misty light, and it looked like ghost eyes.Finally, with the sound of splashing water, the big boat came out completely, bumped on the undulating water, and started to sail towards the lake shore.After a while, they heard a plop, and an iron anchor was thrown into the shallow water, and then there was a slap again, and a wooden board was placed on the shore of the lake.
The people on the boat are going ashore, and the students on the shore can clearly see their silhouettes as they pass the porthole lights.
They are all very tall, wearing a kind of fur cloak with unkempt and tangled hair.But the man who led them to the castle wore a different kind of fur: silvery white, silky and smooth, much like his head.
"Dumbledore!" the man shouted enthusiastically as he walked up the slope. "My dear old buddy, how are you?"
"Excellent, thank you, Professor Karkaroff." Dumbledore replied.
Those present would never think that the three principals of the magic school had already met long ago, and Karkaroff reached a consensus under Dumbledore’s pressure and for the safety of his own life. , And Mrs. Maxim understands the righteousness and supports Dumbledore’s work.
Some people can see his essence from his face. Karkaroff is one of them. He is tall and thin like Dumbledore, and his goatee with small curls on the ends looks funny. But the looming haze and viciousness in his eyes showed that he was definitely not a good crop.
Malfoy looked at the middle-aged man carefully. He was also exonerated. His method was much worse than that of his father Lucius. Although it was also to escape guilt, Karkaroff chose a trouble. The biggest way.
He betrayed his comrades, and there were a lot of jokes in the court at that time, because most of the Death Eaters he confessed in court had been arrested, or died in the battle, but in the end For some reason, he was exonerated.
In the original trajectory, he and Ludo Bagman perfectly attracted Dumbledore's attention. People with previous convictions cannot always be trusted so much.
It's just a hundred secrets, Dumbledore can't think that the Mad-Eye Moody, who he specially invited to monitor the suspicious personnel, is a real fake.
"My student seems to have a cold, don't you mind if we go in and warm up now?" Karkaroff looked at the Hogwarts castle, with a hint of indifference in his eyes.
One by one Durmstrang’s students followed Karkaroff into the auditorium. A young man with a striking hooked nose and two thick and black eyebrows attracted almost everyone’s attention.
"Look! That's Krum! Victor Krum!"
A student wanted to scream, but was covered by the student behind.
Although the Bulgarian team lost in the Quidditch World Cup, Krum showed his skills in the game and still attracted countless fans, or his fan base has always been quite large.
"This is one of the best seekers in the world!" Ron said excitedly.
Hermione shook her head helplessly. It was quite difficult for her to accept the actions made by the senior girl in front of her.
They were noisy, vying for a lipstick, and they wanted to get Krum to sign their hats.
The "non-professional" commentator Lee Jordan jumped up and down on tiptoe, trying to see Krum's back more clearly.
Professor McGonagall glared at these behaviors again, and barely restrained a little, but it was still inevitable to whisper.
